Nothing.

My nose was blocked and my taste buds had become numb for a week. Everything tasted like nothing. Because it tasted like nothing, I imagined what it tasted like and pretended the taste I'm thinking of is the actual taste. And in that moment the imagined taste became the real taste. Maybe it was tastier than the actual taste. And then I thought, why don't I do the same with everything else? And so I did. What I did does not matter. What you should know is that black holes and dark matter and pockets of vacuum and everything dark and silent and numb and still, are just as loud and just as alive. There IS such a thing as something coming out of nothing. And because of that, there is no such thing as nothing.
